As a downtown worker, this is a regular staple in my lunch rotation. Their French Onion Crock is probably one of the best in Buffalo and is available all the time. The salads are pretty big and I usually can't finish them. All in all, good place for good no-nonsense food.
Adam and I had lunch together here. I hadn't been since the mid-90s, and it hasn't changed a bit...not that that's a bad thing. I've always remembered the cobb salad, huge and full of a good selection of ingredients. It hasn't changed either, still memorable and an especially good deal for a large, fresh, downtown lunch (approximately $7). It's so large, that despite being very hungry, I had to bring a take away container home.
"Just fix the facade"? That is exactly the kind of comment I would expect from a typical BRO poster.
Buy your own building and do something to that facade!!! ... how pretentious, Balth.
I'd say that judging from the picture above... that the bent up, tired crappy looking metal piece across the entire facade, the terrible fake brick along the bottom, and garbage aluminum windows pretty much say to me that this facade needs an upgrade. And do you know whats REALLY pretentious?... I CAN HAVE MY OWN OPINION! ITS CALLED THE FIRST AMENDMENT! OH... and one more thing... I HAVE A DEGREE IN ARCHITECTURE, AND, I WORK IN AN ARCHITECTURE OFFICE! Looks like my pretentiousness has some validity. Thanks for looking like a fool DJK!
I will definitely have to check this place out... Now, just fix the facade!
I just came back from there with some co-workers downtown....and myself and another co-worker ordered the Beef-on-Weck. A classic, Buffalo menu item, and it's difficult to mess up. Well let me tell you....they messed it up. It was disgusting. I could swear you could hear this burger "mooing" going down. Bloody mess. I will spend the n ext 72 hours seeing if my intestinal track is infested with E-Coli of some sort. The worst part of it is we ordered separate checked food items and the waitress publicly signed and complained about us. We came with nearly 100 dollars of business, and I'm sorry we did. Never again, food is disgusting, and service was not with a smile, more like a machete and pistol.

I think the facade looks exactly like a should for the type of place that it is......Ulrichs Tavern on the other hand is a real eye sore....they should just level it build something more Bavarain Epcot like.

Holy conniption. This is way more authentic than SoHo or Cheesecake Factory or whatever it is you think this place should look like.
You should have read my profile before you started this battle. Where do you work?
